Welcome

Dear friends

Welcome to my brand new web log, whose birth coincides with the New Year.

I hope you find the comments incisive and interesting. Please feel free to post a comment in response: all sensible contributions, additions and criticism are most welcome. Additionally, I am very happy to receive email, and always endeavour to reply. In short, I aim to create a truly open forum for debate on a range of important issues.

I guarantee to update this blog regularly, and hope that you will continue to visit in a similarly ongoing fashion.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all.

Joshua D R Payne
